Rother Valley Country Park

Highlight • Lake

Rother Valley Country Park is composed of four lakes, nature reserves and areas of parkland. The park was built on land that was open cast for coal, with the main excavation sites filled by the artificial lakes. These days, it is a popular place to visit for recreation and relaxation. There are plenty of gravel trails to explore. It can get busy at times, however, so be mindful of others.
